Mobile Surveillance Units (MSUs)

ECAMSECURE MSUs are portable, compact security stations that can be positioned anywhere, deployed and redeployed rapidly and create time-lapse videos.

Lighting for video

Our MSUs can be equipped with a wide variety and range of lighting options. Our lights can be controlled remotely, or even set to illuminate based on activity sensed by motion detectors, vibration detectors, or video cameras. 

Electronic detection and monitoring

In addition to MSUs, ECAMSECURE can install other forms of electronic detection systems, including HD cameras with IP connectivity, motion sensors, vibration detectors, and time-lapse photography. Through our Command Center, your construction site can be monitored around the clock for rapid intrusion detection and response.

RENTING VERSUS BUYING JOB SITE CAMERA EQUIPMENT

The dilemma of renting or buying job site camera equipment poses the same issues for construction security that it does for other applications of photography. We have options for both and both have their pros and cons.

For short-term projects or for construction companies with needs that vary from one project to another, renting equipment has some attractive benefits. You can rent higher quality equipment than you might otherwise be able to afford while avoiding the cost of having to replace lower-quality equipment that wears out quickly. You don’t have to worry about maintenance or depreciation. Your equipment provider can supply replacements if your equipment doesn’t work. You can claim a tax deduction on leased equipment under the 179 IRS Tax Code.

However, ownership can make sense if you plan to use the same equipment frequently. Generally, over the long term, ownership costs less than renting. You get larger tax incentives and also gain equity from owning equipment and you will also have the option of selling it to recuperate costs if your needs change in the future. On the other hand, you can get stuck with outdated equipment, and you’re responsible for maintenance and replacement.

Alarms and signage

ECAMSECURE also specializes in on-site alarms and deterrent signs. Audible alarms act as an important deterrent for intruders and can be completely automated and integrated with Command Center remote monitoring. ECAMSECURE can also equip your facility with signage that will alert would-be trespassers to the presence of alarms, electronic detection, and monitoring services.
